pope benedict gave them an up-close look, moving through the crowds in the popemobile. he even stopped to kiss a baby. the first pope since the middle ages to step down, smiling today, as he took it all in one last time. the crowd got to their feet and gave him a long standing ovation. today, he looked thin and frail as he addressed the faithful, referring back to the day eight years ago when he first appeared on that balcony. in that moment, he said, i felt like st. peter with the apostles in the boat on lake galilee. referring to that iconic gospel scene right over the entrance of st. peter's basilica. benedict noted that, at times, the seas were calm. at times, the winds were blowing against us. an apparent reference to the scandals that have sometimes challenged his papacy. today was one of the last times he'll wear those red prada pumps. after tomorrow, he switches to brown shoes. the man they once called god's rottweiler, as others have put it, now, a faithful german shepherd. today, there were so many requests for tickets, even st. peter's square, there was stand
